During her husband’s last two years as the team’s captain, she was described as the heart of the wives and girlfriends group. One of them was quoted saying about Allison Weight

“Coming to a new team is always a fun, but difficult transition and Allison couldn’t have made me feel more welcome within the Islanders organization,”
